“Politico reports that Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) raised questions about whether “there was even a copy of the current version of the bill anywhere in the House chamber.”

Rep. Michele Bachmann stated plainly that the bill was “a choice between liberty and tyranny,” claiming that the bill institute “control over nearly every aspect in the lives of the American people” and advocating the Forbes amendment.

Remarkably, Ed Markey, one of the bill’s co-sponsors, rose to report that a copy was only available at the speaker’s desk or online, which Politico reports, would require members “to leave the floor to access.” (Infowars)
